“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.

Frequently asked

Is Acta Medica Philippina a predatory journal?

Our screening does not flag Acta Medica Philippina. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, PubMed, which is a positive signal.

Is Acta Medica Philippina indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

Per our venue index, Acta Medica Philippina appears in: Scopus, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

What is the impact factor of Acta Medica Philippina?

Papers in Acta Medica Philippina are cited about 0.4 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q4, with an h-index of 15. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

What Scimago quartile is Acta Medica Philippina (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

Scimago places Acta Medica Philippina in Q4 for its subject category. Quartiles split the journals in a field into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Acta Medica Philippina is cited about 0.4 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 15. A journal is ranked per subject category, so one spanning several fields can sit in different quartiles depending on the category.

What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Acta Medica Philippina?

The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Acta Medica Philippina. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q4, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.

Is Acta Medica Philippina open access?

Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
